I am writing a backup script for AIX 5 and running into a problem where the output isn't being shown in the output log that is being created. Any ideas on how this would be corrected? I have included the script below. The only thing showing up in the file is listed below. I was hoping to capture all the stages of the output from the backup command that is actually seen when you run it from the command line.

--current output --cut and paste ---
Hello this is dumper_0 on 041706 on peter
We'll be performing backups this morning, for:





dumper_0 completed at 041706
